Now Playing: Flight Of The Butterflies


For all those nature doc lovers out there, the Bob Bullock History Museum is currently showing the short, and incredibly immersive, "Flight Of The Butterflies."

The film combines the true story of Canadian researchers who tracked the migratory patterns of Monarchs with a basic biological look at how Monarch butterflies live, breed, and survive.

While the film is only 44-minutes long, the 3-D IMAX experience remains powerful throughout -- popping with bright colors, vibrant scenery, and Monarchs so close you feel like surely you could reach out and touch them.  It's an order of magnitude better than watching something on your iPhone -- and you just might learn something.
